My Cheesy Christmas

HELLO! I'm back! Nowadays, my life is very busy and a lot things to do, so I don't really have time to write or travelling. But, now I'm back and ready to take you to my 2017's Christmas Story.


This year's Christmas I spent my day with a very cheesy way. Since I live alone in Korea, what I have here, of course, my best friends only, it was my 5th Christmas without a family on my side. Korea currently very cold with temperature average around -11º- 2ºCelsius. It's like slapping-with-ice on my face anytime you take a walk out the door, which I gave up about. Too cold for me. Because outdoor Christmas is too much for me, I decided to spend my time in a Cheese Cake Cafe at Garosugil area called C27 Cheese Cake & Coffee Wine.


The C27 Cafe quite new in Garosugil, the cafe its self-has 3rd floor with very unique decoration on every floor because that day was Christmas so all decorated by Christmas festive feel.
There are a lot of people there and to get a place to sit we need to thoroughly look from the first floor to 3rd floor. Lucky me, we got the best spot near a window on the second floor.


After that, time to pick our Cheese Cake! I was very excited to saw Cheese Cakes with a lot variation of taste. They have really good interior and explanation on every cake there so we can guess the taste as we want to eat. Then after wandering around about 5 minutes, we decided to order Blueberry Cheese Cake / 블루베리 치즈케이크 and Oreo Cheese Cake / 오레오 치즈케이크.


Back to our table and ready to try the infamous Cheese Cake in the town, I scooped my spoon at Oreo Cheese Cake / 오레오 치즈케이크 first, and I loved it. The Oreo's crumbs match well with chocolate on the top of the cheesecake blend together with Cheese in the middle of the cake. Amazing! It was perfect for my dessert lover's tongue. Not too sweet but very delicious!
Price: 8,800₩


The second one was The Blueberry Cheese Cake / 블루베리 치즈케이크. I was full of expectation because I really like the first one when tasting the Blueberry one, and the taste was amazingly more than my expectation. The Blueberry blend with the cheese made this Cheese Cake become the one of the best Cheese Cake I have ever eaten before. The texture of the Blueberry layer and the cheese layer was very blended well then the pie on the bottom of the cake made the texture very delicious once you bite the cake. It was perfect and great!
Price: 8,800₩

The C27 Cafe is a great cafe with good interior and good cheesecake, I am definitely going to come back here again and again with a mission to taste every Cheese Cake in here. The price quite high, but worth with the taste.

I had a good day back then, good dessert, good friend, fun conversation and good place as well. The weather may be cold outside, but it was a very long time since I meet my good friend, have a conversation and spend time together with the good dessert like that day. We had been very busy with our own lives, with work and school, but it was Christmas, we supposed to be spending that with a close friend and family. Isn't it?

So, this how I spent my Christmas. How's about you?

MERRY CHRISTMAS '17 & HAPPY NEW YEAR '18

Adrenaline Rush

It's been a while, I'm pretty beat up with my busy life nowadays. And I feel like don't have any feeling to write so I decided to stop for a while and now I'm ready to share my story again to you.


Last Summer Holiday (in Korea weather started to be chilly, Fall is going to come soon), I went to one of the most popular indoor and outdoor theme park in Korea, Lotte World. Since I was a child, the amusement park has always been my favorite place, because there you can scream loud as you can, you can make your adrenaline up, forget about fear, sadness, pains, and tears. The Amusement park is the place where you just see smile not gloomy face. The happiest place on the planet is the Amusement Park.


I arrived around 12.00 PM KST and like what I predicted before there are so many people there, yeah, it's summer holiday and everybody wants to avoid hot crazy summer sun but stay fun of course Lotte World Indoor Theme Park being the best destination. Okay, let's buy the ticket first.

You can see the admission ticket for Lotte World on the top picture. Actually, I need to pay 51,000₩, but because I have a discount from my credit card, I just need to pay around 20,800₩ for one-day pass ticket. Yippee and happy! Let's start to pump out our adrenaline!


Because too many people there, the queue of every attraction had been always too long, we need to wait around 1-2 hours just only to play one game. But it didn't turn off my fire to play.


So, the first game is The Adventure of Sinbad. This attraction is a boat adventure while you can watch the Sinbad story demonstrated by Sinbad look-a-like dolls. This attraction is designed for children so I don't feel the trilled when riding the attractions, but it was great for the first-time ride to warm up your adrenaline before the next scary ride. You can see the review from the top video.



After Sinbad, I and friends went to the outdoor side of this theme park, they called The Magic Island. The weather was so Hot, and the queue was so long. But we decided to take one attraction and come back again here when the sun little bit set. So we picked The Gyro Swing. I ever rode the Gyro Swing before, it's like big spinning vehicle and you are going to go up and down while spinning in the air. For me, it was not scary, but I'm not really matching with Spinning things attraction which they always make me want to throw up after the ride. But it was refreshing and fun enough sees the good view from Seokcho Lake. You can see the review from the top video. For more information, click this link GYRO SWING.



After that, I decided to get more nausea and picked the Giant Loop attractions. And for your information for every 1-day pass ticket, you can get 3 times magic pass. What is the Magic Pass you can see more information and how to get that by this link MAGIC PASS.

Because I get my magic pass so I can directly go inside the attraction without waiting in the queue. So, let's ride! The Giant Loop was always riding-wanted list for me. The Giant Loop is like you take a roller coaster inside of Giant Circle, you are going to round and around inside the circle which makes you turn around to 360 degrees. Once again, I'm not really matching with spinning things attractions, but it feels new because I never take attractions like this kind of attractions. It was fun, but personally, it will be more fun if the roller coaster runs faster. You can see the review from the top video. For more information, click this link GIANT LOOP.


Okay, after shacked my stomach with all spinning attractions, it's time to eat! Lottle World really has a lot of restaurants and cafes spreading around the theme park. But we picked simple Kebab as lunch, the restaurants were called Delkys. It was located on Adventure site at Second Floor and I order Combo Kebab Set / 콤보케밥세트. Combo Kebab Set was contained of Kebab, Friend Fries and Drink. It was good Kebab and very fit to my shacked stomach because the menu not really big and the meat was delicious.
Price: 8,900₩


And again, Kebab seems not enough for my starving stomach and craving for some cheesy and creamy food, we picked Delibon Restaurant and order for Deli Cheese Potato / 델리치츠포테이토 and Chocolate Cream Waffle / 초코와플.

Okay, first let's talk about the Chocolate Cream Waffle, it was very delicious and creamy, the waffle served warm, so it was very perfectly tasty and crunchy as well. I loved it!
Price: I'm sorry because rushed to eat the waffle I even didn't write the price!

And the Deli Cheese Potato was really perfectly synchronized with my tongue! I really love fried fries and the cheese cream sauce was perfect, really 5 stars for that. I really keep craving to eat this Potato!
Price: 4,500₩



After eating, my stomach pretty full (yeah, I ate Kebab Set plus half of Waffle plus half of Fried fries), so we decided to enjoy Lotte World for a while, walk around and sit down for a while. Since we still have 2 Magic Pass, we use the second one to take Jungle Adventure Attraction. Jungle Adventure is the Boat attraction with the faster and spinning routing and you need to be a little wet here. But okay, don't imagine the spectacular things like Jurrasic Boat like Universal Studios or anything like that because the attraction actually not really long (it was really short, and believe me if I'm not using my Magic Pass, I will cry because it's not really worth with very long queue) and the course not really dangerous, it just yeah fun and make you feel chill for a while remember the hot summer outside. You can see the review from the top video. For more information, click this link JUNGLE ADVENTURE.



Last attraction is the most popular attraction in the Lottle World called French Revolution. The French Revolution is indoor 360 degrees Roller Coaster with VCR for every person. Unfortunately, because that day the visitor was like a lot, they don't operate the VCR, but for my personal opinion, this attraction was the best of the best from Lotte World. And maybe for next time, I will try again with the VCR! It was perfect to close your day at Lotte World. You can see the review from the top video. For more information, click this link FRENCH REVOLUTION.

My adrenaline got rushed, my stomach got good food, and my mood got a booster, thanks to the happiest place on the planet, The Amusement Park! That's how I started and finished my day, time to back home, get some rest and be ready for new adventures for the next day. Because you all know life need keep flowing and growing, we just need to enjoy every moment when your smile still on your face.
